Pro-DeSantis super PAC readies $25 million fall ad buy in Iowa and New Hampshire
Washingtonexaminer ^ | Aug 25, 2023 | Julia Johnson

Coming off of what Never Back Down considers a strong Republican National Committee debate performance by DeSantis, it is preparing a $25 million television ad buy in the two states. The TV spots will be purchased to run between Labor Day and Halloween.

The group expects to place the initial $13 million in reservations as soon as Friday, and it is planning additional ad purchases for New Hampshire.

Sen. Tim Scott's (R-SC) super PAC, Trust in the Mission or TIMPAC, was the first to reserve fall airtime earlier this month. TIMPAC made a $40 million reservation for TV and digital ads throughout the fall. The ad reservations are for Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina, where three of the nation's earliest caucuses and primaries will take place in 2024.

“I’d take Vivek or Christy Noem first.”

I like what Vivek says, but I don’t trust him at ALL. Obama-esque. Noem did OK for her state but that doesn’t mean she’d be good as POTUS (like Desantis).

Trump is the “onliest” one.

BS. Florida is same it was when I arrived 7 years ago. Local Taxes have gone up. House insurance had doubled since DeSantis is governor.

Interesting, but linear television is so over.

And I’m doubtful about the impact of digital ads.

Do any of the candidates have the ability to generate a significant social media presence?

So true. Supporters think that it will be a walk in the park and will be able to accomplish Florida like things for the entire country. He won’t have the friendly state house etc behind him. Aka swamp. They will beat him up and spit him out. Remember when he took the governorship he had 24 continuous years of prior Republican and friendly leadership prior to his takeover. I just don’t think he has the grit to handle that mess. Come back and be the governor he was elected to be and there may be a chance in the future for him . Hope he doesn’t blow it.

80% of his money comes from Rich Anti-Trump Globalist.
Only 20% comes from Small Donors.

I will be totally objective here and agnostic about the various candidates.

Running a conventional campaign as a conventional candidate during these historic — and unconventional — times doesn’t sound like a winning approach to me.

team desantis, and it looks like scott’s campaign, think that saturating tv/cable with ads, your mail box with flyers, your email with messages, and your phone with texts and ads, is still going to help them win some states...

In the past, the person with the most money and campaign ad buys, did win out...

But despite the desantis supporters/nevertrumpers claims this election is like 2016... It isn’t.

Trump is running like a successful incumbent... and all the others are running for show or an attempt by the swamp to maintain their control.

I meant for VP with DJT at the top of the ticket.

Sorry, I didn’t realize that DeSantis moonlit as an insurance executive and also sat on the board of your town council. It is Florida and you did have major hurricane recently, so I don’t know why you’d expect that home insurance rates would go down.

This is where the real money is laundered for the managers.

$25 million wasted dollars? Save that for a different year and a different race.

Man that’s just setting fire to a pile of cash.

Trump is the “onliest” one.

Trump has completely exposed himself as a liberal for those actually watching what's going on. He rarely, if ever, even mutters anything conservative, anymore.
